Gardening in Polizzi Generosa, Petaluma California not Sicily. We're much closer to Penngrove than Palermo. It's Polizzi Generosa in honor of my gardening, cooking, wine and cheese making great grandfather Gitano Borgese.
We are Matthew and Joanne, the gardeners on this here property. Joanne will probably be doing most of the blogging and I'll be trying to make better use of my time to allow more gardening participation.
This winter brings us our third year of below normal rainfall. The recent storms brought our year-to-date rainfall to approximately 16 inches, just 70 percent of normal. We're going to be spreading a lot of newspaper and rice straw this season to conserve what moisture we have. Maybe sometime soon we'll fix the pond too...
